On the 17th of March, I got to go to another great book signing at Joseph Beth Bookstore. This time I traveled to Ohio and got to meet the wonderful author of Still Waters. Emma Carlson Berne, was a great speaker and was so nice about answering my questions and signing my books!

First off, I loved how she just sat with us and talked. She is from Ohio and some of her school teachers were there. It was great watching them all talk about her writing before she wrote her book.

So yeah, we had a great time. I also asked her a few questions, here is what she had to say:

Where did you get the idea for Still Waters?

She said she wanted to do something scary, so she played around with the ideas of doing something with a rowboat in the middle of a lake and how it got there and where were the paddles?

How Long did it take you to write Still Waters?

It took her 5 months after being sold! She told us that she had already had an agent and they suggested doing something on her own and she did a romance type book but then after that went through wrote Still Waters!

I really enjoyed talking toEmma Carlson Berne. Make sure you keep an eye out for my review of her book here on the blog. But right now I have a giveaway to share with all of you. I got a book signed for myself, one signed for my mom and then I got one signed for one of you.
